Traxxas Emaxx Gearing Update |
Gearing Update for the new Traxxas Emaxx (16.8v)
For the New Traxxas Emaxx (16.8v), Novak recommends a stock spur gear and 12-tooth pinion gear for both the HV6.5 and HV4.5 High-Voltage Brushless Systems.
This gearing is a safe starting point and should work well with most battery pack configurations. The motor temperature at the end of each run should be checked to determine if this gearing is correct for your setup. It's important to try to keep the motor temperature below 160F. |

HV-Maxx
Gearing Update |
Updated Gearing Info
For the Original HV-Maxx System:
IMPORTANT: Do
Not Use the Stock Traxxas Emaxx Gearing or the gearing
listed in the HV-Maxx's HV Motor Wiring Sheet with the
HV-Maxx ESC & HV4400
Motor. Using
the Traxxas Emaxx's stock gearing or the gearing listed
in the HV-Maxx's HV Motor Wiring Sheet will overload
the HV4400 Motor and will cause damage.
Please read
the following instruction update addendum for the newest official
information concerning HV-Maxx gearing. This addendum updates
and supercedes the gearing information in the instruction
sheet that is included with the HV-Maxx system:

Recommended
Emaxx Upgrades for use with HV-Maxx |
Recommended Original Emaxx Upgrades:
After extensive
testing, we've found that the high power output of the HV-Maxx
can be too much for some of the stock Emaxx components depending
on how the truck is driven. We used the following performance
upgrades for more aggressive driving or racing conditions, and
recommend them to anyone who is running an HV-Maxx in an Emaxx. (Note: Not all of the upgrades are 'required',
but in the long run, we've found that it makes for a more enjoyable
truck).

HV-Maxx
ESC & SS5800/SS4300 motors |
The HV-Maxx
ESC is designed to be used only with the
550 sized HV4400 motor that ships with the HV-Maxx Brushless
Motor System. Connecting and operating the SS5800
or the SS4300 motors
with the HV-Maxx ESC
will cause the motor and/or ESC to overheat and will most likely cause
damage.Using any type of motor other than
the 550
size HV4400 motor that ships with the HV-Maxx
Brushless Motor System (#3020) will void the
warranty on the ESC and/or motor. |
